Rachel Galvo reflects on travel experiences from Europe to personal growth

Her early holiday memories are tied to the Algarve in Portugal. "This will be damaging to my reputation... but my first memory of a holiday is the Algarve in Portugal," she admits.

In Ireland, Rachel's family tradition includes visiting County Kerry annually. "We set aside a day to drive across into Glengarriff in Cork, which is where my Grandad grew up," she says.

At 21, Rachel visited Edinburgh and was captivated by its charm. "I love Edinburgh... It was my first solo trip and I felt very comfortable there," she mentions.

Rachel moved to London for acting school, which changed her career path significantly. "If I hadn’t done that, I wouldn’t be doing my current job, performing," she explains.

She praises her travel companion Kate for always being ready for new adventures. "My best friend Kate has been to a lot of cool places and she’s always up for embracing a new adventure."
